I have had the great pleasure of working with and alongside Phillip on two occasions over the past 20 years. Over a 5 year period at Event Hospitality and a 4 year period at InterContinental Hotels Group . During these periods Phillip performed the role of Head of Design and Projects partnering with myself as a Head of Operations.
Phillip demonstrated to me a high degree of design skills, commercial savvy, stakeholder management, project planning and co-ordination. We successfully combined to develop, refurbish and deliver numerous hotels and other hospitality projects. His years of experience and knowledge regarding hospitality developments was always evident and ensured the success of his projects.
I highly recommend Phillip as a talented, committed and trust-worthy design & project specialist in the hospitality sector.

Phillip did an exceptional job heading up the Technical Services division at Amalgamated Holdings Hospitality and Leisure Division and I am also very familiar with his work at Jumeirah Hotels and Resorts. Phillip is a true professional. His attention to quality and detail, focus on bringing projects in on time and budget and his project oversight combine to deliver great results. He is a personable and trusted character and this enables him to work well with all stakeholders to achieve the desired outcome.

Phillip worked closely with our group during the launch of our first Holiday Inn Express hotels in Australia. I found him to be very reliable and knowledgeable and able to provide a pragmatic approach to solving complex design and technical challenges usually faced with new hotel construction
